The Opposite

Everybody knows that the world is round
And what goes up has to come back down
Well, I wonder what everybody would do
If the opposite were only true

If the world was square and they also found
That what went up never did come down
It would be too good, just too good to be true
'Cause then you'd love me and I wouldn't love you

You'd be the one to beg for a date
And I'd be the one to show up late
You'd be the one to cry every night
And that would really serve you right

But the world is round, it's so very round
And what goes up has to come back down
So until the day that the opposite's true
There is really nothing I can do
Except to go on lovin' you

But the world is round, it's so very round
And what goes up has to come back down
So until the day that the opposite's true
There is really nothing I can do
Except to go on lovin' you, oh yeah
Except to go on lovin' you, sweet thing
Except to go on lovin' you, my baby
Except to go on lovin' you, ooh, baby
Except to go on lovin' you, oh yeah
Except to go on lovin' you
